Digi Choosday - Christmas Decor

This week, the theme for the Challenge at Digi Choosday is Christmas Decor and so I took the opportunity to make my yearly ornament for my daughter using this adorable little guy from the the Festive Hollybobs Collection. You can also get him separately HERE.

I printed him and colored him with my copics and then used a Spellbinders Oval die to cut him out. I used one of the Flower Soft Display Globes and added some chunky glitter along the edges and up along the sides to make it look like it was frosted.

I mounted it onto another decorative Spellbinders die and then added a couple of red adhesive pearls and silver cord for my hanger.

Be sure to head over to the Digi Choosday Blog to see what the other talented ladies have as inspiration and also be sure to add your project to the linky.

Flower Soft Snow Globe Ornament

Today, I am featuring the Flower Soft Snow Globes and I thought I would make an ornament for the Christmas Tree. I love the vintage look of this!

I used the Flower Soft Spellbinders Vintage Christmas kit for my
images and I simply cut them out with an oval die and popped it up on an oval base that was cut to the same size as my globe. I edged the images in gold ink, cut the "Peace" scroll from the included sheet and added some bling.  I did this on both sides of the base and the glued two globed back-to-back over the whole thing.

To hide the glue, I attached some cream lace along the edges of the globe using some scor-tape and then used my gold Wink of Stella pen to add some glitter along the edge of the lace.

I used a hole punch at the top so that I could add some gold cording for a hanger.

You could also use one Display Globe and leave the other side flat to create a beautiful tag for a special gift that could then be hung on the tree. I hope I sparked some ideas and you will give these a try.
